Where the money goes

Every figure on this page comes from the same ledger the finance team works in. There are no separate marketing numbers, and nothing here is rounded in our favour.

The ledger balances
Received equals allocated plus unallocated, and allocated equals reconciled plus money still in field hands. Both identities hold.
‏1,072,400 US$
Received
‏806,500 US$
Allocated to campaigns
‏265,900 US$
Not yet allocated

Money that has arrived but is not yet committed to a campaign. Disclosing it is the point: an appeal that reports only what it has spent is hiding its float.

‏612,300 US$
Reconciled with receipts
‏194,200 US$
In field hands

Released to teams and partners but not yet matched to receipts. Some of this is money in a boat on the Atrato right now.

Overhead

Administration and fundraising as a share of total expenditure. The board sets a ceiling, not a budget — under it is better.

What the money bought

Every spend line, the team that made it, and the impact it is reported to have had. Lines still in review are marked as such rather than left out.

Trace a gift

Gifts carry a reference printed on the receipt. Enter one to see the campaign it funded and the spend lines that campaign paid for. No account needed — accountability behind a login is accountability a journalist cannot check.

What we got wrong

Mistakes are published here rather than corrected quietly. An appeal that has never made one is not being audited closely enough.

22 August 2026

A pump was bought twice

Two teams ordered a replacement pump for the Quibdó plant in the same week. USD 4,200 was spent twice. The second pump has been redeployed to Bahía Solano rather than returned, and request R-1035 is under query while the approval path is corrected.

19 August 2026

Shelter kit numbers were overstated for two days

A field tally counted kits dispatched rather than kits delivered, putting the public figure about 340 too high between 17 and 19 August. The figure now counts delivery signatures only.
